03 Jun 10 - 09:04 PM (#2920176) Subject: New York singers session? From: GUEST,steves Does anyone know of any traditional singing sessions in the New York area? I am interested in attending one if there is. I can't find any listed online. I am particularly looking for an unaccompanied singing session. I am a singer who also accompanies myself on different instruments, so a session with instrumentation is ok too. |

We also have singing parties about once every month or two at people's homes. The next party will be in early August. See our web site at www.folkmusicny.org for dates and locations. We also have concerts, weekends, and an annual festival, Eisteddfod, November 5-7 this year. In addition, Ken Schatz is running a monthly singing session at Banjo Jims on one Sunday night a month. That may be the event cited above. (I did not renew my cookie before posting ...) |
